The Wedding Ringer isn't innovative, but ultimately it's a crowd-pleasing movie.

It's a ridiculous premise exploited poorly, settling instead for plenty of athlete cameos and countless astonished reaction shots.

It manages to offend on so many levels that it's genuinely remarkable.

Hart is a very engaging and likeable comedian but this is only one of a number of absolute stinkers in which he has appeared in recent years.

Principally concerned with the indignities wrought on schlubby Josh Gad's gonads by, among other elements, chilli and hungry dogs.

Jun 10, 2015So much party and bullshit, and I mean that in the best way possible! A financially stable but friendship-challenged guy (who manages to put a ring on a hot blonde) enlists the ultimate, temporary friendship salesman. I'm not really familiar with Kevin Hart's stand-up, but he is rather excellent as Jimmy Callahan aka Bic Mitchum, the faux Best Man. He imbues all his toasts with off-the-cuff humor, crowd-pleasing meet-cutes, researched anecdotes, and unexpected poignancy. I want him as MY Best Man! Jimmy and Doug bonding through dance is hysterical, and the whole soundtrack is bumpin'. The septet of random groomsman is weird yet lovable, and Jimmy's flirtation with Alison, the bride's flinty sister (played by winsome Olivia Thirlby) is subtle and sweet. I was afraid Gretchen, the hot blonde, would just be a one-dimensional nice girl, but revealing her as a gold-digger is just as bad character development. Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting didn't really have any room to play with hot and bland, but maybe she could have played the gold-digger with a bit more sympathetic intention.Alice S Super Reviewer

May 31, 2015A unexpected surprise which was funny and not overly smutty. Hart is quite good as a man who offers his friendship for a price and Gad plays the perfect comic foil very well. A perfect rental! 05-29-2015Christopher O Super Reviewer

May 25, 2015Lighthearted and fun, The Wedding Ringer is a formulaic goofball comedy with a fair amount of laughs. Unable to come up with any groomsmen for his wedding, Doug Harris turns to a small-time hustler who specializes in wedding services. Leads Kevin Hart and Josh Gad deliver solid performances, but the supporting cast is rather weak. Also, the comedy is uneven, as the raunchiness seems random and out of place. And the plot is full of clichés and stereotypes. Yet despite its weakness, The Wedding Ringer is still pretty entertaining.Dann M Super Reviewer
